Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Cottown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How we handle bath resealing in Cottown
The key to a good reseal is getting all of the old silicone out. New silicone won’t bond to old, which is why so many DIY reseals peel. Typical jobs include unsealed corners and water getting behind the bath or tray, on wet rooms, baths and basins & vanity units.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t stand toiletries on the seal
- Run the extractor fan during and after showers
- Dry the seal after bathing
- Clean the joints with a mild cleaner
Keep the room well ventilated, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
If you notice damp, stains on the ceiling below or loose tiles, act quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.

What affects the price in Cottown
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When to call us in Cottown
In time, even good sealant discolours particularly in a well-used bathroom. Steam, soap and movement all take their toll.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A messy previous reseal
- Unsealed corners
- Mould you can’t clean out
- Old sealant that looks dirty

Cottown: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long does a reseal take?
Usually a couple of hours, then it needs to cure.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours.

- Residue is removed and the joint cleaned.
- We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
